Alternate Learning and Compression Approaching R(D) Open
The inherent trade-off in on-line learning is between exploration and exploitation. A good balance between these two (conflicting) goals can achieve a better long-term performance. Can we define an optimal balance? We propose to study this…
Emergency Department Visits for Pedestrians Injured in Motor Vehicle Traffic Crashes — United States, January 2021–December 2023 Open
Traffic-related pedestrian deaths in the United States reached a 40-year high in 2021. Each year, pedestrians also suffer nonfatal traffic-related injuries requiring medical treatment. Near real-time emergency department visit data from CD…
Comment on egusphere-2022-1248 Open
Abstract. Stocks of Atlantic cod, Gadus Morhua, show diverse recovery responses when fishing pressure is relieved. The expected outcome of reduced fishing pressure is that the population regains its size. However, there are also cod stocks…
Asymptotically Optimal Stochastic Lossy Coding of Markov Sources Open
An effective 'on-the-fly' mechanism for stochastic lossy coding of Markov sources using string matching techniques is proposed in this paper. Earlier work has shown that the rate-distortion bound can be asymptotically achieved by a 'natura…

Priorities and Indicators for Economic Evaluation of Built Environment Interventions to Promote Physical Activity Open
Background : Built environment approaches to promoting physical activity can provide economic value to communities. How best to assess this value is uncertain. This study engaged experts to identify a set of key economic indicators useful …
Advances in Compression of Power Quality Signals Open
The emerging technology of smart grids relies heavily on monitoring the distribution networks for disturbances using, for example, the devices installed for measuring power quality signals. Obviously, efficient compression of these electri…
Layered Coding of Hidden Markov Sources Open
The paper studies optimal coding of hidden Markov sources (HMS), which represent a broad class of practical sources obtained through noisy acquisition processes, beside their explicit modeling use in speech processing and recognition, imag…
On Quantizer Design to Exploit Common Information in Layered Coding of Vector Sources Open
This paper studies a layered coding framework with a relaxed hierarchical structure. Advances in wired/wireless communication and consumer electronic devices have created a requirement for serving the same content at different quality leve…
Frequency domain singular value decomposition for efficient spatial audio coding Open
Advances in virtual reality have generated substantial interest in accurately reproducing and storing spatial audio in the higher order ambisonics (HOA) representation, given its rendering flexibility. Recent standardization for HOA compre…
Summarization of ICU Patient Motion from Multimodal Multiview Videos Open
Clinical observations indicate that during critical care at the hospitals, patients sleep positioning and motion affect recovery. Unfortunately, there is no formal medical protocol to record, quantify, and analyze patient motion. There is …
Optimal Communication Strategies in Networked Cyber-Physical Systems with Adversarial Elements Open
This paper studies optimal communication and coordination strategies in cyber-physical systems for both defender and attacker within a game-theoretic framework. We model the communication network of a cyber-physical system as a sensor netw…
Deterministic Annealing Optimization for Witsenhausen's and Related\n Decentralized Stochastic Control Problems Open
This note studies the global optimization of controller mappings in\ndiscrete-time stochastic control problems including Witsenhausen's celebrated\n1968 counter-example. We propose a generally applicable non-convex numerical\noptimization …
Deterministic Annealing Optimization for Witsenhausen's and Related Decentralized Stochastic Control Problems Open
This note studies the global optimization of controller mappings in discrete-time stochastic control problems including Witsenhausen's celebrated 1968 counter-example. We propose a generally applicable non-convex numerical optimization met…
Estimation of roughness-induced scattering losses in III-nitride laser diodes with a photoelectrochemically etched current aperture (Phys. Status Solidi A 4∕2016) Open
Constricting the current to flow to the center of the lasing mode by laterally and controllably etching the active region can improve the performance of optoelectronic and electronic devices by eliminating current leakage pathways and redu…
Analog multiple descriptions: A zero-delay source-channel coding approach Open
This paper extends the well-known source coding problem of multiple descriptions, in its general and basic setting, to analog source-channel coding scenarios. Encoding-decoding functions that optimally map between the (possibly continuous …
